Preventing tarnish of jewelry by sulfur

2002

Q. I often have to use hair products containing sulfur. I love silver & white gold jewelry but the sulfur often tarnishes & eventually ruins my jewelry. Is there anything that I can do to prevent this tarnishing?

A. Dear Tamara,
you can use any silver anti-tarnish dip to prevent silver plated parts.
